Ayutthaya in February
Great time to visit
Another excellent month with dry weather and manageable heat. Tourist numbers remain high, so expect busy temples and full restaurants during lunch hours.

All Months
November through March offers the best weather with temperatures around 25-30°C and minimal rain. December and January are peak months when the ruins look golden in the dry season light. But crowds are thickest then too. April gets brutally hot - we're talking 35°C+ with humidity that makes cycling miserable. The rainy season from May to October brings afternoon downpours that can flood the lower temple areas. Here's what most guides won't tell you: early morning in any season beats midday. The temples open at 6 AM when it's cooler and the light is softer. Sunset at Wat Chaiwatthanaram happens around 6 PM in winter, 7 PM in summer.
